The Hermit (The Hollow Universe Book 4)

Dr. Ryan Wallace retreats to the Alaskan wilderness to find peace with his past. The last thing he expects is to stumble upon a woman barely clinging to life. As he watches her fight her way back from hell, his own problems begin to pale in comparison.

Daphne Pierce doesn't realize how much of a fighter, a true badass, she is until she's pushed to the brink of her endurance...and survives. Ryan is different, quiet, with an edge of darkness she understands after her ordeal.

When she returns to her own world, both of them realize there are some things you just can't live without.

Another dramatic romance from Always the Good Girl, Shayne McClendon.
